Passenger Headlight question

Hey fellas I just have one quick question i got into a little fender bender just a while ago. Well i connected with the right side of my truck so what I need to know is does the headlight chrome cover that covers the headlight really hold it in place or is there more to it behind the headlight because its broken and my headlight is secure but i can push or pull the headlight and it moves quite a bit

Thanks..

It's all one piece......the two nuts are a huge PITA to get off, too. A little 1/4" drive ratchet and long skinny limbs are the easiest. Reach around and you'll feel them.

Now I'm doubting my memory as I changed my plain grill and trim to chrome last spring.....I think it all comes out together then the headlight can be unscrewed from the trim.........

Pardon my newbie interuption.
I used to work at ford dealer bodyshop, all be it quite awhile ago. The bezel around the light has the parking and turn signals attached to it. Once that assembly is removed, you get access to the the head light. Now if memory serves me correctly ( I have been known to be wrong relying on memory), there is a mounting panel that runs the entire width of the front end. That may be broken
